🔍 Key Concepts

• Foaming in lube oil reduces the amount of actual liquid oil available for bearings and gears • How entrained air in oil affects pumps, level readings, and heat transfer • The relationship between oil level, heat removal, and lubrication film

💭 Think About

• If a sump or tank is full of foam instead of liquid oil, what will the sight glass and overflow lines experience? • How does air mixed with oil change its ability to carry heat away in a cooler? • What happens to the oil film on bearings and moving parts when the oil supply contains a lot of bubbles instead of solid oil?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which options are direct, logical consequences of having air/foam instead of solid oil • Check how foaming can affect oil level indication and flow to the system components • Confirm how foaming impacts heat transfer in coolers and lubricating film thickness on parts
